I can see the headlight plastics getting destroyed in a slide is there anything I could protect them with? I thought about just gaffa taping strips of mild steel to the sides
Dont ride beyond your capabilities, then you "shouldn't" come off. I never had an off until I pushed myself too far, so just take it steady & most of all enjoy it
